Tamiya Panther Ausf. D [ 

That ball MG mount on the Panther A and G was known as the mailbox mount as that was exactly what it looked like. When the Germans found out that the bow MG couldn't transfer far enough side to side or left to right, so they quickly went to the Ball/mailbox type on the mid A's to fix this flaw. As the early A's still had this slit type with the open and close driver vision port in the front glacis plate. That is probably the easiest way to tell an early Panther A from the mid to late run A's

The wheel thingy the small one next to the sprocket is a return roller to prevent the track from clogging up in one spot and disabling the tank

This is a panther! It panths! - Herbert Erpaderp 2021

excellent video my friend nice job on the build very detailed thanks for sharing

I've built the 1/48 Panther (i like ya cut) G kit

THE MIGHTY PANTHER!!!!

Silly Herbert, everyone knows that the fire extinguisher is for campfire pranks...

Ah! German Tank! (... insert a proper Sauerkraut joke HERE ...) I also came for polycaps and Herbert didn't let me down just as the kit and the video... and the video about the kit, you know?

Nice, I personally love the Panther, especially the D model, so maybe I should buy a kit, maybe a 1/35 hmm....

I built 3 pieces of these things for my custom 40k army.

To bad most of the hatches a closed. Only in combat a tank drives closed up.

Have a look at "Girls & Panzer" (a manga movie) and you know how you can paint it ;) Thanks for your really krass (awesome) videos!
